• Use appropriate moving equipment to transport each frame; ensure the equipment is capable of supporting the weights listed
above.
• Wear protective gloves when handling equipment. Sharp edges may cause personal injury.
• Some products include polypropylene bands around the unit for packaging. Do not use polypropylene bands to lift the unit.
• Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that children may not play with them and risk suffocation and death.
• Lift the outdoor unit from the base at specified locations. Support the outdoor unit at a minimum of six (6) points to avoid slippage
from the rigging apparatus.
• Do not drop the unit when carrying it with a forklift.
• Use a minimum of three (3) lifting straps.
• Place a protective cloth or other soft material at the locations where the casing comes in contact with the lifting straps to prevent
damage to painted surfaces.
• Always know where the unit's center of gravity is before lifting. Hoist the unit with the center of gravity centered among the lifting
straps.
• Caution when using forklift to transport an unpackaged unit. Consider the unit's center of gravity when lifting. Protect the painted
surfaces as necessary to prevent damage to the unit finish.
